How to follow PEP naming conventions in TD

General TouchDesigner Discussion

Hello,

I have thought of switching my python naming conventions in TD to follow PEP, but I am not sure how would I approach promoted methods / attributes / properties in extensions. Please is there some other way of making it promoted - without having the name capitalized? Thanks :slight_smile:

The PEP8 for code style guide is for how to develop code for the core Python libraries itself, not for how to use Python in general.

This document gives coding conventions for the Python code comprising the standard library in the main Python distribution.

Many projects have their own coding style guidelines. In the event of any conflicts, such project-specific guides take precedence for that project.

So for TD you’ll need to follow the conventions TD uses, at least for the parts where we impose the hard rules such as extension capitalization. Sorry!
